Swamptin Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I'd say risers. I've run truvativ risers on my street bike. But it is really about the feel. On a short frame it tends to feel nice with risers personally. I'd say go risers on a street rig myself. It gives you a slightly better ability to pop it onto the rear wheel.
